Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" revolves around the story of the death of Caesar at the hands of his close ally Brutus and other conspirators. The play deals with themes of loyalty, good vs. evil, appearance, and reality, power, greed, etc.

This is an example of verbal irony because Cassius portrays Caesar as a cruel tyrant but also pities the person.
